I agree with both of you regarding Grimes, but I think, ANH you're allowing dislike of Duff to colour his opinion on Grimes' performances under him. It was more than two games where he finally started looking like the player people claim he is. It was a solid run of 5-6 games, that run that included both those fixtures you mention.

Like Neefie says, Duff forced him out of his comfort zone. Something none of Cooper, Martin or Williams have tried to do. We need to get rid for precisely the reasons you suggest.

I'll never remember it like you do, but the one thing we can both agree on is that the guy has way too much power within the club.

It's not going to happen probably, but I'd love a relegated side like Ipswich or Saints to come in for him this summer, plonk a couple of million on the table, and we can take it and totally reshape the engine room of this side.

Not even sure he'd leave.

Think he's strolls around Fairwood like he owns the place by what it appears from outside.

Wouldn't surprise me at all mate.

Like I say I think we're stuck with him unfortunately. Unless we get a manager in who has the balls to take him on, and at same time is allowed several of his own men to come in so it's the manager who controls the dressing room.
